Quote

"At the end of the day, a teacher’s job is to help his or her student to succeed. After many years of working on jobs that either simply made my employers money, or on jobs where the ultimate goal was to make sure that people had a good time on their vacation, I found that I needed a more fulfilling purpose. For me, there is no greater purpose in a profession than helping others achieve their goals." — Timothy M. McRaith
